The sensor can determine position, temperature or other resistively measurable quantities and can transmit the data via an ultra-low power ultra-wideband (UWB) data transmitter. With this approach we can energy-self-sufficiently acquire, process, and wirelessly transmit data in a pulsed operation. A proof-of-concept system was built up to prove the feasibility of the approach. The energy consumption of the system is analyzed and traced back in detail to the individual components, compared to the generated energy and processed to identify further optimization options. Based on the proof-of-concept, an application demonstrator was developed. Finally, we point out possible use cases.

The Wiegand effect, in contrast to continuous sources like photovoltaic or thermal harvesters, provides small amounts of energy discontinuously in pulsed mode. To enable an energy-self-sufficient operation of the sensing device with this pulsed energy source, the output energy of the Wiegand generator is maximized. This energy is used to power up the system and to acquire and process data like position, temperature or other resistively measurable quantities as well as transmit these data via an ultra-low-power ultra-wideband (UWB) data transmitter. A proof-of-concept system was built to prove the feasibility of the approach. The energy consumption of the system during start-up was analysed, traced back in detail to the individual components, compared to the generated energy and processed to identify further optimization options. Based on the proof of concept, an application prototype was developed.

A1 - Hüning, Felix T1 - Wiegand-Effect-Powered Wireless IT Sensor Node N2 - With the growing interest in small distributed sensors for the “Internet of Things”, more attention is being paid to energy harvesting techologies. Reducing or eliminating the need for external power sources or batteries make devices more self-sufficient, more reliable, and reduces maintenance requirements. The Wiegand effect is a proven technology for harvesting small amounts of electrical power from mechanical motion.

A number of commercial platforms are available, however, at an impressive price. In this paper, we describe the hardware and software component of a low-cost wheeled rugged-terrain robot. The robot is based on an electric children quad bike and is modified to be driven by wire. In terms of climbing properties, operation time and payload it can compete with some of the commercially available platforms, but at a far lower price.

The test and validation of ADAS/AD with real test drives, although important, involves huge costs and time. Simulation tools provide an alternative with the added advantage of reproducibility but often use ideal sensors, which do not reflect real sensor output accurately. This paper presents a new validation methodology using fault injection, as recommended by the ISO 26262 standard, to test software and system robustness. In our work, we investigated and developed a tool capable of inserting faults at different software and system levels to verify its robustness. The scope of this paper is to cover the fault injection test for the Visteon’s DriveCore™ system, a centralized domain controller for Autonomous driving which is sensor agnostic and SoC agnostic. With this new approach, the validation of safety monitoring functionality and its behavior can be tested using real-world data instead of synthetic data from simulation tools resulting in having better confidence in system performance before proceeding with in-vehicle testing.

T1 - An inexpensive Wiegand-sensor-based rotary encoder without rotating magnets for use in electrical drives JF - IEEE Transactions on Instrumentation and Measurement N2 - This paper introduces an inexpensive Wiegand-sensor-based rotary encoder that avoids rotating magnets and is suitable for electrical-drive applications. So far, Wiegand-sensor-based encoders usually include a magnetic pole wheel with rotating permanent magnets. These encoders combine the disadvantages of an increased magnet demand and a limited maximal speed due to the centripetal force acting on the rotating magnets. The proposed approach reduces the total demand of permanent magnets drastically. Moreover, the rotating part is manufacturable from a single piece of steel, which makes it very robust and cheap. This work presents the theoretical operating principle of the proposed approach and validates its benefits on a hardware prototype. The presented proof-of-concept prototype achieves a mechanical resolution of 4.5 ° by using only 4 permanent magnets, 2Wiegand sensors and a rotating steel gear wheel with 20 teeth.

Oberhalb der Sprungtemperatur wurden die Elektron-Phonon-Kopplungskonstanten fuer YBCO und BSCCO bestimmt. Dabei wurde erstmalig ein direkter Zusammenhang zwischen der Sprungtemperatur und der Kopplungstaerke gefunden. Der Kopplungsmechanismus enthaelt sowohl phononische als auch elektronische (spindynamische) Anteile. Unterhalb von T_c wird die Dynamik durch Aufbrechen und Rekombination von Cooper-Paaren bestimmt. Bei den Arbeiten zu den kohaerenten Phononen wurde ein Modell entwickelt, das das 'Anwerfen' der Phononen und das Amplitudenverhalten unterhalb der Sprungtemperatur erklaert. Als begleitende Untersuchungen wurden breitbandige Hochfrequenz-Messungen vorgenommen. Die Methode erlaubt die Untersuchung von Ladungstraegerdichten und von Streumechanismen. Erstmalig wurde in verspannten YBCO-Duennfilmen eine starke temperaturabhaengige Resonanz-Absorption beobachtet, die als Josephson-Plasmaresonanz an intrinsischen Kontakten identifiziert werden konnte. Die Nutzbarkeit dieser Kontakte fuer Bauelemente wurde durch einen Mikrowellendetektor demonstriert. Durch den Nachweis von emittierter gepulster Strahlung aus einer stromdurchflossenen supraleitenden Bruecke nach optischer Anregung wurde erstmals die Einsatzmoeglichkeit von HTSL fuer schnelle optische Schalter demonstriert. Es wurde gezeigt, dass die Schaltgeschwindigkeit eine direkte Folge der Ladungstraegerdynamik ist. T2 - Dynamics of non-equilibrium states in HTSC.
